About this book

In an era when bloodlines dictated the perceived excellence of horses, "A Dissertation on Horses" by William Osmer boldly challenges this notion. This groundbreaking work dismantles the myth of innate qualities, asserting that a horse's superiority is rooted in mechanical principles rather than hereditary traits. Osmer meticulously presents evidence and philosophical arguments to support his revolutionary perspective, making a compelling case for the mechanical excellence of these majestic animals. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this document invites readers to reconsider long-held beliefs about animal breeding and excellence. Dive into Osmer's thought-provoking analysis and explore the intersection of science and philosophy in the realm of equine studies.
